Head in the Clouds

I love Karen Witemeyer’s books. Have I mentioned that before? I love them so much that I have already pre-ordered her next
book, Short-Straw Bride, which comes out June 1. I have an advent calendar that I am using to help me count-down the days until it arrives at my doorstep! Well, maybe not literally, but in my mind anyway! Head in the Clouds is a simply marvelous novel.

Book rating: Up All Night’er

Adelaide is a sweet, adorable, petite girl who has recently
made a humiliating discovery. She
is looking to escape her past by working as a governess at a remote sheep ranch
in Texas. There she finds a
dashing transplant from England named Gideon. He's got it all--looks, charm and that wonderful English accent! Swoon!! She is hired to work for him by caring for his daughter,
Isabella, who hasn’t spoken a word since her mother died.

This book has a great villain and lots of fun
excitement. The spiritual message
made such a difference in my life.
I loved how easily Adelaide seemed to communicate with God and I really
felt like I wanted and needed to be more like that.

Gideon is very intrigued by Adelaide’s sweetness and
fun-loving nature. She, in turn, cannot escape his charm. As their relationship heats up, so does the danger posed by Isabella's money-hungry uncle.

I loved
this book on so many levels. It
was the perfect blend of romance, excitement, and just pure fun. A great any-time read!

I just finished this last night, and it's my favorite by far! I loved the plot, the character's (I'm a sucker for a Birtish accent, lol). I cried when Sheba died and I cried when he bought her another horse! This is just my favorite of the 3 so far! I'm staring on Courting Marrow Little next!
